I am not sure how many partitions and what sizes to setup on my 650Gb external. For now I have setup 540Gb for the Wii format, but am not sure what to do with the rest.
Should I have 3 drives, WBFS, FAT (or FAT32?), NTFS. What sizes should the FAT and/or NTFS partitions be? Is there a size restriction on how big the FAT partition can be?

Thanks!
One of the easiest ways if you use GX loader is let the program do it for you. That way you don't have to worry. Otherwise you could use wbfs manager 3.0 or similar.

Thanks, but I don't have any problems formatting or setting up . I just wanted to know if there were any rules of thumb for the partition sizes and formats. For instance if I made the whole drive WBFS, I wouldn't be able to add HB to it. Also I was wondering if I do make another partition, would 50GB be too large to be recognizable using FAT (or should I use FAT32). Also is there benefit to have a 3rd NTFS partition.
